RE: Reorganize table

You can export and compress on the fly.... This unix...

mknod export_pipe p
compress < export_pipe > export_file.dmp.Z & exp userid .... file=export_pipe log=export.log table=(big_fat_table) .... compress=n

Try it. I hope it compress to less than 5G.

If you can't export, can you do ctas (create table as select..) ? Either way it's going to take a long, long time...
